The 32-year-old singer said she hoped she and Taylor Swift could “come together in a place of love and forgiveness and understanding and compassion”.

“I love her, and I want the best for her,” she said.

“And I think she’s a fantastic songwriter, and I think that if we, both her and I, can be representatives of strong women that come together despite their differences, I think the whole world is going to go like, ‘Yeah, well we can do this.’”

Katy Perry opened up during Witness World Wide, a weekend-long live stream in which fans got to watch her do everyday things like cooking, as well as holding Q&As.

She admitted to being in therapy after having suicidal thoughts, interviewed stars like Anna Kendrick and, while talking to James Corden, she ranked her boyfriends from best (John Mayer) to worst (Diplo) as well as having guests stop by including Sia, America Ferrera, Dita Von Teese and RuPaul.

However, it’s unclear if Taylor Swift is ready to forgive and forget.

Last week, Taylor put her music back on Spotify, on the same day Katy Perry’s new album came out.

She’d originally pulled her songs off the platform in 2014, after criticising the effect streaming services were having on the music industry.
